Comments on: How to Create Daily Habits as Consistent as Brushing your Teeth http://www.lifeevolver.com/create-daily-habits-consistent-21-days/ Tips for tranforming your life Mon, 30 Aug 2010 20:27:41 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: jenny http://www.lifeevolver.com/create-daily-habits-consistent-21-days/#comment-335 jenny Tue, 28 Jul 2009 17:18:04 +0000 http://www.lifeevolver.com/?p=3#comment-335 You start by assuming that a person has a daily tooth brushing routine. Don't know if i'm alone, but I have the hardest time even making this a routine, and it's all uphill from there. I've heard too often - it's like brushing your teeth - but as someone who fights with themselves over even this basic routine on a daily basis, the rest looks very out of reach.

Chaining is a very good method to systematically support what you described. You compete against yourself and try to make longer and longer series of positive behavior. If you manage to change for 10 consecutive days and suddenly stop you start again aiming at making the next chain even longer. Even when you fail in the beginning this keep you looking forward and you remain motivated. I wrote a longer article on chaining on my blog. It is a collection of more than 200 practical time saving tips at home, at work or on the go. http://memytime.wordpress.com/2008/11/06/change-habits-with-forward-chaining/ Changing habits often is a long and difficult process as you described very well.
